Northern Voices ~ Musical gems from Nordic countries

Presented by Cappella SF

Come with us to the far north to experience the extraordinarily strong choral tradition of the Nordic countries.

Our travels will take us through Sweden, Norway and Finland as well as Iceland, the Faroe Islands and Denmark. Some of the pieces will be familiar; others possibly less so. This is compelling music that touches the heart, taking us on an emotional journey, at times light as air and sailing, at others dark and mysterious, full of emotion and warmth. Whether you experience these works as old friends or new discoveries we know you will appreciate the musical glories of the Nordic countries.

You are invited to a free reception after the concert on Sunday, February 16 in the Mission Dolores School auditorium just behind the Basilica. Entrance on 16th Street.
